    First off...The Huffington Post is NOT a credible news source. Secondly...FYI Stoffi the PPP is a DEMOCRATIC run polling group. Again, facts please. Arrianna Huffington is a hypocrite. She was a republican...then a democrat..then republican. She follows the money like any smart business women however her ethics are less than desirable.

    You are correct...some people should not vote. Since you want to post links. Ill give you THIS one and can supply many more like it

    nooblet...what is wrong with wanting smaller government control, less government spending and FREEDOM that is given to us in the Constitution. Something that this president has blatant contempt for. I'm not saying the republicans are perfect either. Bush did the Patriot act that was against it as well. The republicans have lost their way since Reagan.

    Oh and nooblet...what part is a lie? Give me facts.

    This I agree with on BOTH sides of the aisle. The only way to stop it is to outlaw lobbying and that will never happen Im afraid.

    Perhaps what you should first of all do is provide sources to your own claims then start to complain about others, then you wont look so foolish :)

    Korp, if you have nothing to add to the conversation other than ignorance...STFU! All you are trying to do is start trouble like normal with no intelligent input and add to your post count. Troll.

    Oh this post is so ironic :) You dont find it at all slightly dumb that you complain about other peoples sources and go writing "facts please" while you didnt yourself provide any source to begin with, had no facts either just opinions, biased opinions as well. I dont thou see how those two youtube videos discredits Huffington post for example as not a "credible source". You on the other hand seem to trying to rack up some posts since you made three while you easily could have just made one :)

    Natural Selection nuts make me laugh.

    They watch all those action movies and then figure that the fitness of someone is measured by how well they would survive in the jungle with a spear (or some modern variation).

    I wonder how geniuses like Einstein or Newton would have fared under those standards.

    If you look at some of the greatest systems on the planet (the human body included), they include parts that could not survive on their own, but that thrive as a group.

    Isolationism was never our strong suit. Hundreds of species fare way better as lone wolves than we do.

    Our most significant technical or social advances are the fruit of contributions from hundreds of individuals.

    Yes, there is a natural selection, but where you err is in it's scope. Survival for a specie as social as human beings is not measured at the individual level, but at a group level.

    Can we get our act together, capitalize everyone's strengths and help them overcome their weaknesses?

    When someone that is a valuable member of your society needs a hand, will you prop him up or laugh in his face and call him weak?

    First of all, you have no idea what I'm doing so you can't rightly assume that I'm sitting on my ass doing nothing (my profession does require a lot of sitting however so I'll make you right on the first half of your statement).

    Second, debating about my viewpoints is a lot different from *****ing.

    So you guys think Americans really care about Obamas religion? Might be true for ppl over the age of 40, but not the case, at least, for the younger generation.

    I dont think this has anything to do with America tbh, it's more of an age problem. The traditional and older generation will care about Obamas religion, while the younger generation will probably care less. This is probably the case all around the world, not just in America.

    Agree or disagree?
